Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

We aim to significantly increase the knowledge of doctors and patients on how to successfully treat Pilonidal Disease. We want to ensure that patients get the best possible treatment to resolve the disease and go on to lead healthy, happy lives.

Strategy #1: Provide a single top-tier recognized resource for factual data on treatments. (done and ongoing) Strategy #2: Provide an online forum for community interaction and patient-to-patient emotional support Strategy #3: Provide video training resources for doctors to learn newest techniques.

Capabilities exclusively digital and rest on the organizations's commitment to maintaining the online resource as well as building relationships with medical professionals around the globe to pioneer new treatment options and inform as many surgeons as possible on new techniques and theory. We are well equipped to handle these needs.

Our list of surgeons has increased by 50% since the organization began making an effort to outreach and teach new techniques to surgeons. Site traffic comes from all over the globe with specialty forums for residents of the UK and Scandinavian countries.
